Re: Hauptmann Willy (Willi) Priebe
Very little information on Priebe. He may have been one of the many enlisted soldiers who applied for flight training in 1941-42 and finally matriculated in 1943-44, too late to have much impact on the air war. His age and wartime commission strongly suggest that fact. He does not appear to have been credited with any victories.
PRIEBE, Willi. (DOB: 30.11.07). (W.B.K. Halle/Saale). 08.43 Hptm. (Kr.O./Fl.). 19.04.45 Hptm., shot down vic Birenbach/Göppingen.
Mentioned in Jägerblatt 2/2001 but without further details.
